Craft: Knitting
This pattern is available on Ravelry(goes to new website)(opens in a new tab).
Designed for our newest ranch-specific yarn, Ranch 02: Forbes, the Tillage Hat showcases the softness and elasticity of American Rambouillet wool. This hat features the same cable motif as our Tillage pullover — bold cable panels and plenty of gansey-inspired texture — but in a thicker, worsted-weight gauge for a fast and fun knit.
Please note: the stitch patterns for this garment are charted only.
